My wife and I enjoy listening to music when we are camping. Our favorite is Native American flute music. Seems so fitting to be listening to that while at camp. The
battery powered iPod docking station with speakers that we used for a few years is now broken beyond repair.
My son recently purchased a Bose SoundLink Mini Speaker that sounds amazing. It has built-in rechargeable batteries that are recharged with a 120V power supply that can plug into a recharging cradle or directly into the speaker unit. The output of that is 12VDC. All of these high quality speaker units seem to use built-in batteries.
There are times when we are camping without shore power and it would be handy to be able to plug in an external
battery pack to power the speakers. I have a
battery pack that uses (4) AA batteries to power / recharge my cell phone. I have not found a similar unit that will provide power at 12VDC.
I have found rechargeable power packs that can output 12VDC, but they use built-in batteries, so once the charge is depleted, there is no more power. With replaceable batteries I can keep an ample supply of fully charged batteries to use in an external power pack…if one exists for 12VDC.
So, do any of you folk know of an external battery pack that uses replaceable standard size batteries (AA seems most common) and outputs 12VDC?
As always, any input is most appreciated.
